Get the results you want with individualized ESL Classes! For your first class, we will have a consultation about your goals, strengths, weaknesses, and any education or experience you have with English. From then on, I tailor each and every lesson to fit your needs- this could be speaking, listening, grammar, phrasal verbs, culture, etc. I incorporate various forms of media into my lessons including articles, video, worksheets, and blogs. I send follow up emails after class that detail the mistake patterns I noticed and how to fix them. Ask me a question to find out more!

First of all, congratulations on having the courage and self-discipline to do what most others do not: learn a new language. The hard part is over! You've already begun the learning process and now all you need is someone to give you the guidance, support, and tools to help you along the way.

I hold my students to high standards, believing that setting consistent and high expectations is the key to success and improvement. I encourage students to reach these standards by providing honest feedback about their strengths and weaknesses, actively listening, and individualizing every lesson. Though I set high standards for students, I expect and even encourage them to make mistakes. Making mistakes is the best way to begin getting better and lets me know what areas we should work on together.

Very industrious teacher. She adapts her classes and topics depending on your necessities; also she is aware about you are doing well or wrong.

Elisha is a smart, patient and detail oriented teacher. She has a great experience in giving the class and following up with students, especially giving homeworks that covers the whole class. I would recommend her in English and ESL lessons and classes for any age or level.

Elisha is a patient and kind teacher who plans thought-provoking lessons. She really understands my child and what works for him. I have seen noticeable improvement in my son’s ability to analyze and summarize literature since starting lessons with Elisha. We are very happy with the work Elisha does and would highly recommend her!

Elisha is an excellent teacher! Patient, engaging, and kind. I was not comfortable speaking English, but she always makes me feel comfortable and encouraged.

I have taken lessons from Elisha on a number of topics over the years. She communicates clearly and has a friendly, supportive style that makes learning easy. She has also reviewed a number of papers I’ve written and provided invaluable insight and suggestions. Despite her you age, she has wisdom and maturity beyond her years. Anyone would be lucky to have the opportunity to work with her.

I first met Elisha in Seoul, Korea where she was a teacher at same middle school as me. As a M.Ed student, I relied on her to proofread grad school essays and even my final thesis. She was always patient, clear, and detailed. She always explain to me what mistakes I made and how to fix them. My essays and English improved very quickly. Once Elisha started helping me, my grades began to go up. Thank you for your help!

My daughter has been taking English lessons from Elisha for 6 months and I've already seen a huge improvement in her pronunciation, fluency, and confidence. My daughter is doing better in her schoolwork overall and actually looks forward to her English classes with Elisha, where she gets the individual attention and help that she doesn't get from her ESL classes at school.
Elisha tailors her lessons to the level and needs of her students and always incorporates a little fun into class. If you are considering ESL lessons for your child, I would highly recommend trying a class with Elisha.

I began taking classes with Elisha in 2014 to improve my conversational English. Elisha is an encouraging, supportive, and friendly teacher that always makes me feel comfortable to speak. She chose topics for class that she knew I was interested in and seemed to really care about my progress. She was even willing to answer extra questions I had outside of class. I look forward to our weekly lessons and not only has my English improved greatly, but I am now more confident in my ability to speak with native English speakers.

Elisha is an excellent teacher, she helped me edit and write a resume which ended up landing me the job that I have now. She has also helped me write documents for work that contain technical industry-specific vocabulary, and she always has the best disposition and attitude.

I am an elementary school English teacher in Taiwan. Whenever I have questions about English I always turn to Elisha as she is very helpful to me. Elisha is experienced in teaching Asian students. I would highly recommend her as an ESL teacher.
